WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE

Born: Stratford-on-Avon,England
Date: April 23 , 1564
Died: Stratfprd-pm-Avon.
Date: April 23, 1616
Born at Stratford-on-Avon, 1564, Married early. Left Stratford for London (1586) where he resided till 1609. Joined an Actors' Company there, subsequently acquiring an interest in the Globe Theatre, Southwark. His own dramatic writings were done between 1501 and 1612; he is credited with thirty-seven plays altogether-of which only sixteen were published before his death- and he wrote a memorable series of sonnets. The last five years of his life were spent at Stratford, where he died, 1616.

Depth is a third facet of the Shakespeare canon. His works recognize the complexity of our experience and often yield contradictory interpretations of their meaning. Working in the meter of natural or conversational English, his plays were and remain accessible. Granted, Shakespeare texts do include some words and phrases that require definition. Nevertheless, with the aid of a few explanatory footnotes, they can be easily understood. Lastly, creative innovation is a hallmark of Shakespeare's writing. Although he utilized dramatic, poetic, fictional, and historical sources and models, the Bard of Avon invariably put his own stamp upon these materials. Several of his works were experimental when they were first staged.

WILLIAM SHAKESPEAREE,Elizabethan Dramatist

Shakespeare's reputation as the greatest English-language writer stems from at least five dimensions of his collective work. The first of these is the sheer scope of his achievement. Over some thirty-eight plays, Shakespeare addressed virtually every aspect of human experience. His plays include comedies, tragedies, histories, romances, and problem plays: it is difficult to think of a dramatic situation, a human dilemma, or a major theme that his works do not touch upon. That being so, although he wrote for a specific audience of a particular historical era, Shakespeare's works are timeless. In fact, many of his works have been updated to our own time.
